There are functions to read and write PEM files. See: https://www.openssl.org/docs/crypto/pem.html In particular see the functions: PEM_read_PUBKEY and PEM_read_PrivateKey There is a discussion on EC Key files on the wiki here: http://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Command_Line_Elliptic_Curve_Operations However, note that if both sides of your communication are reading from key files (and reusing those key files), then you are not doing ECDHE (as is in the subject of this thread) - you're just doing ECDH.
